Features: One of the key features of this book is its extensive coverage. The first eight chapters cover the main areas of cryptography: classical cryptographic theory, fundamental number theory, the RSA algorithm, digital signatures, and more. The last nine chapters discuss key distribution schemes, game theory, information theory, e-commerce, digital currencies, and "zero-knowledge" technology, among others. In the appendix, the authors provide examples of implementing algorithms using Mathematica, Maple, and MATLAB. This book can serve as a textbook for senior undergraduate and graduate students majoring in cryptography, network security, and related fields.
